Lindsey Vonn: The Great Return to St. Moritz, the Queen of the Snows
St. Moritz, the pearl of the Engadine, is preparing to host an event that will make the hearts of alpine skiing fans beat faster: the return of Lindsey Vonn to the slopes where she wrote memorable pages in the history of the sport. The American champion, one of the most successful skiers of all time, returns to the place that consecrated her as a legend of world skiing.
A Heroine of Skiing: The Life of Lindsey Vonn
Born on 18 October 1984 in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Lindsey Vonn grew up with skiing in her heart. She started skiing when she was only two years old and, thanks to an extraordinary talent, has reached the top of the world sport. Lindsey is one of the few athletes to have won in all disciplines of Alpine skiing: downhill, super-G, giant slalom, special slalom and combined.
With over 82 World Cup victories, she is second only to Ingemar Stenmark in the overall ranking. She has won four overall World Cups (2008, 2009, 2010, 2012) and numerous world and Olympic titles, including the downhill gold medal at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. Despite serious injuries, Lindsey has always shown incredible willpower, returning to the track with the determination of a true champion.
A Special Link with St. Moritz
Lindsey Vonn and St. Moritz: a perfect pair. The Corviglia downhill runs, famous for being as spectacular as they are technical, have often seen Vonn triumph with her drive and unmistakable style. With over 82 World Cup victories, Lindsey Vonn is an example of determination and passion, values that our Beng Ski School in St. Moritz is committed to passing on to its students every day.
